It's time to rewrite reviews-aKG doesn't just regulate demethylation. Work from my lab and @mzspectrum demonstrates a new role for aKG in promoting histone acetylation and DNA repair through regulating carnitine synthesis. Congrats @ApoorvaUboveja! nature.com/articles/s41586-0…

What happens when tumor cells can't find enough nutrients? They "call" other cells. We have found a new mediator of this phenomenon: the multifunctional cytokine LIF 👇

SIRT6 decline throws Off Mood, Sleep, and Cognition. rdcu.be/eTvJj Tryptophan byproducts build proteins, NAD+, and neurotransmitters (serotonin and melatonin). Yet, in aging and neurological disease, this balance is lost, leading to impaired mood, learning, and sleep.

Really excited to share our new study, where we identified ZNF280A, a novel regulator of homologous recombination during DNA repair, linked to the human 22q11.2 distal deletion syndrome. A special shout out to @ThomasLClarke for leading the project! nature.com/articles/s41556-0…

🚨📢Fresh off the press and featuring new exciting experiments! 🧪 We show how glycolytic activity instructs germ layer proportions through regulation of Nodal and Wnt signaling doi.org/10.1016/j.stem.2025.… B2B with @VillarongaAlba @teamstembryo : doi.org/10.1016/j.stem.2025.…
Can metabolic processes instruct cell fate decision making during embryonic development? In our new preprint, we show an important role of glycolytic activity for the development of endoderm and mesoderm through the regulation of Nodal and Wnt signalling. biorxiv.org/content/10.1101/…

No us perdeu aquesta nova reunió (la 32a) @MetNet_Bcn . Us esperem com sempre a l'IEC!
#Trobada MetNet | On es fomenta l’intercanvi d’idees sobre la regulació metabòlica i el seu impacte en malalties com l’obesitat, la diabetis, patologies cardiovasculars, neurodegeneratives i el càncer. 🔗Per a més informació i inscripcions tuit.cat/mQU2m

Check out our new review on intercellular and interorgan communication between circadian clocks ⏰🧬 @NatRevMCB ! SharedIt link for free access: rdcu.be/d5ppE #circadian #metabolism
Circadian clocks constantly communicate to preserve tissue homeostasis, but ageing compromises the mechanisms that enable this crosstalk. Want to learn more? In our new review, @JacobSmithSci, Pura, Salva and take a dive into all things clock communication nature.com/articles/s41580-0…

I am happy to share that @molecular_guy paper is online! rdcu.be/dZwAN We can imagine REST and SIRT6 as a rowing team. In healthy brains, they work together, moving forward and protecting brain function.
